Owen

Seeking a book club

Hi, I'm a 23 year old academic (physics) taking a break period after my masters. My degree really killed off my reading habit and I am only just getting back into it. At the moment I am mainly reading some philosophy, but I am open to any work, fiction or non-fiction. I am actively interested to get into new genres and forms of writing. Currently reading: On the Nature of Things - Lucretius

Owen recommends:

The Dispossessed
by Ursula K LeGuin | Learn more and buy
A deeply impactful read. It has been very significant to me personally.

Emma

Seeking a book club

Hey guys, I’m Emma, I’m 31 and I’m a book girly. I’ve tried before to set up a book club with friends but due to conflicting schedules it’s never worked out and I would love to meet some people to chat all things books with over a coffee! I like romance mainly, sometimes fantasy and reading is my favourite thing to do to unwind! :)

Emma recommends:

The Dead Romantics  by Ashley Poston!
The Dead Romantics
by Ashley Poston! | Learn more and buy
This is one of my favourite books from 2023, I loved the story and the little subtle hints of magic throughout. Ashley’s writing is quite nostalgic, and brings backs memories as I flick through the pages!

Jpicks

Seeking a book club

I’ve fallen in love with reading again! I set myself a challenge for this year to read at least one a month, but none of my friends are avid readers & don’t feel like I can have a conversation with them about it.
